ody Carson sat looking out over the world. Well not really the world but Hokkaido, Japan. He was sitting atop one of the many mountains around the place. He had a red and white CANADA toque on. He has a pair of yellow sunglasses on and a red and white Canada jacket. He was in baggy ripped up jeans and a pair of gloves. I know what your thinking Cody Carson, poor ass mother fucker, how can he afford this. Well, he has a couple of friends that get discounts. 5 fingers that is. He looked like he was part of the Canadian Olympic team. He sat on the top of the mountain and looked around.
Hey Carson!” came a yell from behind him. Cody turned and looked behind him as a man dressed in, a yellow jacket, Oakley sunglasses and a pair of black jeans. He shifted his weight from side to side, coming down and turning forward stopping and sitting down beside Carson. “What’s up dude?” he asked as he lifted his sunglasses. Cody smiled, not knowing if the man has gelled his hair or if it was just frozen that way. “Earth to Cody?”
“Nothings up. I‘m just admiring the view.” Cody said looking back. The snow cracked and made the sound the snow makes as a woman in a pink shirt and a pair of jeans with goggles and a Canada toque plopped down beside him.
“Cody…” She said leaning over and pushing him with her shoulder.
“That’s my name.” He said, pushing her back.
“Leon, Can we have some privacy please?” She asked looking at the man, now know was Leon. He looked at Cody who just smirked and shrugged.
“I‘ll see you bitches at the bottom.” He said standing up and hopping heading down the hill, catching some good air off of a mini drop Carson had stopped just a little bit above.
“Bitches?” Cody questioned with a shake of his head he looked over at the woman. She was pretty. Her face with round and her Reddish Medium brown hair hung out from under the toque and her eyes were brown. She pulled her goggles up and smiled at him with her luscious lips. And reached over, putting her arm around him and leaning her head on his shoulder. He leaned his head on her head and put his arm around her. “So what‘s up?” He asked taking his head on of hers.
“Funny, I was gonna ask you the same thing.” She said looking at him.
“Nothings wrong.” Cody said, looking back to the city below the mountain. He took a deep breath and sighed.
“You just seen so distant lately.” She said staring at him, trying to read his reaction.
Cody glanced at her and realised what she was doing. He learned along time ago how to hide everything from almost everyone. Three people in this world could tell what he was feeling. Jalie Thomas, Seth Thomas and Carmen Dumas. Others might have thought they knew but they had no clue. “I‘m fine.” He said, the tone in his voice was strong and hate no hint of pain or confusion in it.
“Cody, you don‘t always have to be the tough guy.” She said, resting her hand on his back. “I know everything that has been going on the last little while.”
“No.” Cody said. “No you don’t.”
“Then tell me.” She said.
“Why do you push this shit so hard Jenine. When there‘s something wrong with you, I don‘t push this fucking hard to get it out of you.”
“So there‘s something wrong…” She said, catching it.
“Nothing fucking wrong.” Cody said raising his voice.
“Don’t you yell at me mister. You just remember all the crap I sent through with you.” Jenine was now glaring at Carson.
“You know what?” Cody said, raising to his feet and clipping the board to the boots.
“What, you just gonna run away again.” She replied. “True Carson fashion.”
This stopped Cody dead. HE was about to jump and start down the hill when she said that. He turned to her and the look he gave her made her regret saying what she said. “I Have never ran from anything in my life. Don’t you ever say I did again.”
“You run from yourself and you run from the truth.” She shot back, she was scared but wouldn’t show an ounce of it.
“How?” Carson asked.
“You run from yourself all the time. You always put your problem down. You never to solve them, you just keep putting them under that layer that you have.” She said, calmly. “And you run from the truth.”
“How the hell do I run from the truth?” He yelled at her.
“Brand James in happy without you. She doesn‘t need you. All she wants to do is use your ass to get what she wants. She loves Rick for Christ sakes. I didn’t she her running to help your ass when You and Jimmy were beating each other up on the outside. No, she was making out with Rick young. Face it she doesn‘t want you.” She glared at him. “You still believe that Seth Thomas will suddenly turn around and be your brother again. Without Carmen around he doesn‘t have to be tied with you. The only reason he puts up with you is because of Jalie.” She took a deep breath. “Face it Cody, without Carmen, Seth will never like you.”
Cody paused for a minute. “I‘ll prove to …”
Jenine cuts him off. “That what? You know how to take a beating?”
“No. That I deserve…”
“His friendship? That world title that you so frequently talk about? Your spot above him?” She questioned. “Your never going to do that. Because you and Seth are so much alike it makes me sick. Never wanting to let the other have the edge over you. Never wanting to just say, fine that’s enough I‘m done. No, you could have ended it all at the last pay per view. But you pushed it. You made it a match that almost killed in about 2 years ago. You talk about being the best… This match only proves that you are fucking dumb.”
“What the fuck do you know?” Cody said, refusing to admit she was right.
“I know that after your match with Jarvis you changed. And no for the better Cody. You changed and thought nothing could hurt you.”
“Nothing can.”
“Bullshit.” She yelled. “That’s all you are any more. Your not superman Cody. You will get hurt.”
“Why the hell do you care anyway?” Cody said.
“I lost Josh, I lost Dan… I don‘t want to lose you.”
“You don‘t have me.” Cody said, taking it the wrong way.
“You‘re like a fucking brother to me Carson” Suddenly she wrapped her arms around him. “Please…”
“I‘m not backing out.” He said taking a deep breath. She looks at him. “But, after this match… win or lose, I will end this with Seth.”
“Promise?”
“Swear.”
She smiles and then kisses him on the cheek. “See you at the bottom.” She said, turning an heading off the lip, also landing cleanly. Cody watched her go and smiled to himself.
He took one last look around at the scene and smiled. “Till the end.” He whispered to the wind. He bent down and clipped the last clip on his boot and hopped, hitting the lip with a little sleep he popped his knees and got a lot of air, not as much as Leon but still some. He grabbed the edge of the board and shot his arm in the air for balance as the cameras freeze shot him like that. They slowly fade to black.
Fuck off, before I traumatize you for life. If blood, violence, gore, stupid humor,religious jokes, sexist jokes, and a whole lot of fucking sound a little too outrageous for your tastes, then grab your purse, adjust your skirt and get the fuck out of my sight.
